BATON ROUGE -- The LSU women's tennis team will begin their dual match season Saturday with a home opening double header against Northwestern State at 1 p.m. CT and Southern University at 6 p.m. CT.

"I'm very excited to kick off our spring season this weekend," head coach Julia S. Sell said. "This team has put in an incredible amount of hard work and conditioning, and now it's time to enjoy some competition."

This double header will mark Sell's first dual matches as head coach of the Lady Tigers, as well as the first LSU dual match action of assistant coach Amine Boustani and volunteer coach Michael Sell.
